Re-live one of the most historic, most emotional days in New York Mets history! After 45 years at the old round baseball coliseum, the end had come for Shea Stadium. With the sparkling new billion-dollar palace known as Citi Field looming large beyond the left-field bleachers, fans gathered on September 28, 2008 to say goodbye to the sight of countless great baseball moments, including the 1969 and 1986 World Series championships. After 40 all-time Mets greats were introduced to rousing cheers (including names like Jerry Koosman, Dave Kingman, Darryl Strawberry, Dwight Gooden, Ed Kranepool, Willie Mays, John Franco, Lenny Dykstra, Keith Hernandez, and more), the final pitch was all set to take place: "The Franchise", Tom Seaver stood high on the mound, and beloved future Hall of Fame catcher Mike Piazza took his stance to receive one last throw. With the entire scene laid out before you under the lights on a damp fall late afternoon in Flushing...SNAP! The moment is preserved for all-time, and is now available for your wall.
